  7. Basia Bulat (CAN)
    Artist image
    Breathless, thirsty, dislodged from dreary nostalgia.
    Since the age of three, Basia has been sitting on piano stools and trying to hammer things out. It started with her piano-teacher mum, but along the way Basia’s picked up guitar, autoharp, banjo, ukelele, sax and flute. In high-school her instrument was the upright bass – a lone girl among “eight-foot-tall guys, goofing off with the tubas”. There’s a sense of play that still suffuses her music, jostling under the songs of regret and love, want and joy.

    Artist image
    It’s all in the name. Das Pop can rock but they don’t make rock.
    They are shameless in their creation of ‘white’ power pop full of supple references to 1960s hit bands, 1970s singer/songwriters and 1980s new wave. But their music never feels retro. They combine the old with the new in a way that only makes perfect sense for a band that developed a few bar stools away from the sample mayhem of 2manyDJs.

    Mayhem is not the only possible outcome of a collision. Another option could also be that something new is born.

Uncompromising and without excuses Dead Soul presents a dystopian view of the world, but always with a clenched fist and steady gaze. <br /> ”I won’t do as I’m told ’cause the truth will be unfold. I won’t be your slave, I won’t dig my grave”.

    Setting out on her own, she has taken elements of her band’s sound and spun them into her own brand of bittersweet, sun-bleached pop. Breathing vocals over mesmerizing keyboard phrases, Erika produces an effect that approaches the supernatural, with tough, spring-loaded beats lending gravity to the otherwise hazy, delirious songs.

Junip´s sound can be familiar to those who have listened to José Gonzalez’s critically acclaimed records, but added to the mix on top of his nylon stringed guitar and distinctive voice are organs, analog–cut synths and drums.

    With a sudden synth stab there's an eruption of Technicolor energy and somehow the world's just feeling a much poppier place. Hot stepping into our lives from this psychedelic netherworld are LCMDF, two Helsinki sisters smouldering with more Smash Hits factor than Neneh Cherry's Top Trumps card and more giddy, skewed hooklines than an Ace of Base boxset that's been left out in the sun too long.

    Mariam The Believer is the nom de guerre that Mariam Wallentin, the singer from the duo Wildbirds & Peacedrums, has chosen for herself.
    In this solo adventure Wallentin leaves the mix of minimalistic blues, pop and rock impro that has been the characteristic of Wildbirds & Peacedrums behind, and steps down into a dark hole filled with vibrant creativity. An oriental ambience fuses with the warm silhouettes of experimental pop and unpolished soul in a way that nourishes both body and mind.

    It's the majesty of organs spilling out of a cathedral on a Sunday morning, it's the lonesome howl of a harmonica played in the park, it's the thud thud of taxis driving over loose man hole covers and the inexplicable booms of noise that swell through sky scraper canyons.

    One-man-band Chris Ward, known to most as Tropics, is the complete all-rounder.

  88. Tu Fawning (USA)
    Artist image
    Formed three years ago by Portland musical mainstays Corrina Repp and Joe Haege – who between them cover piano, drums, percussion, guitar, vocals and samples, and who have carved out cult reputations as a solo artist and with 31 Knots respectively, amongst other things.
    The band have been making a name for themselves in the North West ever since, refining and perfecting their unusually otherworldly, primitively spiritual sound.

  89. volcano! (USA)
    Artist image
    Believing in the importance of fusing improvisation and abstraction, with pop melodies and harmonies- a beautiful, epic noise they have all of the right tools to execute these big ideas.
    Aaron With contributes bizarre tango vocal expressions, composed lyrics with vivid images, and strums hard and fast on the guitar. Mark Cartwright creates horrible noises and enveloping ambient soundscapes with a variety of electronic implements. Sam Scranton plays drums and percussive toys as loud as his thin arms will allow.

  90. WATERS (USA)
    Artist image
    Spring 2010 saw the demise of Port O’Brien, and founding member/front man Van Pierszalowski needed a break from the hectic, wonderful mess that is touring.
    He stumbled into respite in Oslo, Norway, and spent some time away from making music. Van explored the new city, swam in the Norwegian fjords, enjoyed the weather and the experience of seasons changing. He found his bearings and fell in love again.

    It started like a bit of a love affair.
    A chance meeting between two sultry leaders of two travelling packs of musicians, stealing glances on the sly at a truck stop somewhere along the Autobahn. Adam Olenius (Shout Out Louds) and Markus Krunegård are WE ARE SERENADES.

  92. When Saints Go Machine (DK)
    Artist image
    When Saints Go Machine are a hard band to pin down, four young men doing things with electro pop that no one has done before.
    The Danish four-piece formed in 2007 are a complicated mix of influences. There’s dance music in there, for sure, but also post punk, some experimental electronica in the Aphex Twin mould, and, crucially, a healthy dose of pop. You could describe the end result as a heady mix of Caribou, The Knife/Fever Ray and Arthur Russell. But, really, it doesn’t sound like anything else out there.

    Liberated abandon of their primitive soul strikes an immidiate and invigorating chord hard in the lister.
    Mariam Wallentin and Andreas Weliin create their music with constant spontinaiety and exploration into sounds, rythms and instruments as well as a desperation and obsession to create timeless music that addresses the basicalities and essense of life.

  95. Woodpigeon (CAN)
    Artist image
    Woodpigeon creates music much the same way a bowerbird crafts a lovenest: the right space is chosen and the bower goes up twig by twig, berry by berry, embellishing a basic construction that’s already sound and lovely.
    Canadian Mark Hamilton mostly sings about the Unbearable Mark-ness of Being: secret love ninjas, imaginary segregated private schools, stolen kisses, confounded passion, windy days and city streets, thoughtful walking, the kind of longing that is wonderful, and the kind of longing that is sorrowful

    Artist image
    The Norwegian collective, headed up by composer/multi-instrumentalist/producer Matias Tellez, gained notice in November 2010, after three songs they uploaded to their Facebook page were picked up on by international music press.
    Fusing tropicalia, psychedelic rock, traditional pop, and classical symphonic and traditional pop recalling the classic sounds of Brian Wilson and Phil Spector, Young Dreams both adheres to and upends the conventional definitions of pop music, creating a sound that’s at once refreshingly familiar and daringly unique.

  98. Young Galaxy (CAN)
    Artist image
    Hailing from Montreal, Canada, Young Galaxy is the brainchild of Stephen Ramsay (ex-Stars) and Catherine McCandless.
    By way of background, both Ramsey and McCandless stem from island roots, from Canada’s Western frontier, that place of rising tides, beach side campfires and fogged-in cedars. Yet, there’s another facet, a cool urbaneness, the measured cadence of a city strut. Years spent in the fertile cosmopolitanism of Montreal have made their mark.

  99. Yukon Blonde (CAN)
    Artist image
    Yukon Blonde are the multi-talented Vancouver four-piece. The band are equally as impressive live as they are on record...
    They have the ability to write storming indie-rock anthems and hook-heavy arrangements with highly addictive, sing-a-long choruses. Frequent warm flourishes of bright guitar compliment the bands’ trademark catchy hooks to create a unique and compelling sound reminiscent of 60’s soaked psychedelic rock yet defiantly more eclectic than most of their influences.
